We have delivered design support for a diverse range of educational settings, from primary through to higher education institutions, across both new build and refurbishment projects. With a strong understanding of current education building regulations, we engineer environments that are safe, sustainable, and suited to modern teaching and learning needs, often working in live settings. Our designs provide new and enhanced facilities that meet evolving standards in accessibility, energy performance and technology integration. Through close collaboration with project teams, we apply our technical expertise to deliver robust, cost-effective solutions that ensure durability, compliance and long-term value.
